阿森納20年首次若勝布萊頓將迎英超跨賽季九連勝

19:30 today, Beijing time, the third round of the Premier League will witness a fierce battle at the Emirates Stadium, where Arsenal will face Brighton. The Gunners are aiming to achieve a nine-match winning streak in the Premier League across seasons.

The victory against Aston Villa in the previous round marked Arsenal's eighth consecutive win across seasons, making it the second time in 2024 that they have achieved this feat. Both of these eight-match winning streaks have put Arsenal among the top ten in the club's history. Furthermore, if Arsenal wins today, it will be their first nine-match winning streak in the league since the 2003/04 season.

Here are Arsenal's historical records of consecutive league wins:

14-match winning streak: February 10, 2002 - August 18, 2002

10-match winning streak: September 12, 1987 - November 14, 1987, March 11, 1998 - May 3, 1998

9-match winning streak: March 2, 1971 - April 20, 1971, January 10, 2004 - March 20, 2004

8-match winning streak: September 5, 1903 - October 26, 1903, March 19, 2000 - May 6, 2000, February 10, 2015 - April 11, 2015, January 20, 2024 - March 9, 2024, April 20, 2024 - August 24, 2024

It is worth mentioning that the two longest winning streaks in the history of the English top league are both 18-match winning streaks, achieved by Manchester City in the 2017-18 season and Liverpool in the 2019-20 season.
